I am referring to being able to dock a program to the panel or system 
tray without closing.   I thought that was the definition of 
minimizing.  Otherwise, why have a hypen (-) and an X on a window if 
they do exactly the same thing - that is close out the program 
completely?   Some programmers make dumb decisions, in my opinion, and I 
can't see how taking away that functionality makes for a cleaner 
desktop.  But thanks for the comments on which Linux desktops might do 
what I'm requesting.    --Jerry
